REVIEW OF OPERATIONS AND ACTIVITIES

The year ending June 2011 has been a turbulent and transformational period for the company, driven by both external and internal events.

A high level of commitment to the Feasibility Study timetable associated with the Co-operation Agreement with ENUSA continued through much of the year and was accompanied by a similar level of corporate activity. For example, a non-binding MOU was signed with the Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) to finance and develop the SUP was announced on the 10th August. However, on 29th October 2010, a potential takeover bid by OAO Severstal (Severstal) was announced, subject to financial, technical and legal due diligence and the KEPCO financing proposal fell away. By the 29th December 2010, Berkeley and Severstal were unable to agree terms upon which Severstal could make an agreed bid for the Company, and the exclusivity granted to Severstal expired in January.

The Company then proceeded with an equity raising of $55 million at a price of $1.70 per share for the issue of 32,360,000 new shares prior to the decision to advance to exploitation of the Salamanca Uranium Project on 17 January. This placement to institutional investors was completed in March 2011, following shareholder approval for the second tranche of the issue

On the 11th March 2011 the global nuclear industry was impacted by the tragic events in Japan and the consequential effects on the Fukushima Nuclear Power Stations. The Company then experienced a more substantial challenge when ENUSA, the Company's consortium partners in the Salamanca State Reserves, failed to form the JV Company 'Newco' by the required date of the 27th May 2011. This followed the submission to ENUSA of a restricted Feasibility Study, limited to the State Reserves Mineral Resources, on 23 February 2011, as required under the Co-operation Agreement. Discussion with ENUSA is ongoing.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Berkeley Resources Limited – Concise Financial Report 2011 7

Looking forward, our opinion based on industry consensus, is that the events of Fukushima have done little to alter the long term supply-demand drivers of the uranium industry, demonstrated by the continued strength of and term uranium prices. In addition, the Company continues to work with ENUSA towards developing and implementing options that will provide higher levels of confidence, and reduce risks, for both companies, in progressing towards production.

One of the positives of the year ending June 2011 was commencement of a Retortillo scoping study based on heap leach, with the potential to transform Berkeley into a multi-project company. The Retortillo project is expected to remain independent from the proposed project with ENUSA, and will source its production from Berkeley's 100% owned resources, currently totalling 31.7Mlb of uranium. The Company has recently reported that the Retortillo preliminary feasibility study has been initiated, targeting a production rate of between 1.5 to 2.5Mlb per annum. Completion of the preliminary feasibility study is expected mid November 2011, following submissions for licensing and permitting in October 2011.

Sustainable Development – Health, Safety, Environment and Community

Sustainable Development, including environmental responsibility, radiological protection and community awareness, engagement and support are paramount considerations for Berkeley. As a result, Berkeley has established a strong Health Safety Environment & Community (HSEC) team supported by the consultants Golder Associates, Ingemisa SA, Aquaterra, Salamanca University and Paulka Radiation & Environment.

Salamanca Uranium Project The broader Salamanca Uranium Project (SUP) incorporates the Aguila Area deposits (Sageras, Palacios and Majuelos) and nearby Quercus Processing Plant, the more distant deposits at Alameda and Villar, and the Company’s 100% owned resources at Retortillo and prospective licenses contiguous with the State Reserves.

Under the terms of the Co-operation Agreement with ENUSA the feasibility study was to be based solely on resources within the State Reserves (the Mining Domain Feasibility Study ‘MDFS”). In accord with the Co-operation Agreement, Berkeley paid ENUSA €1 million in December 2010 to extend the completion of the MDFS by one year to 26th November 2011. The Company then advised ENUSA of its decision to progress to the exploitation phase when the decision to exploit was announced on the 17th January, 2011, and submitted the MDFS on 18th February 2011.

The decision to exploit was to trigger the formation of a joint venture company, Newco, owned 90% by Berkeley and 10% by ENUSA, with the right to exploit Uranium Mineral Resources within the State Reserves. The parties agreed to the target date of 27th May, 2011 to form Newco after ENUSA, as a partner in the Consortium, verified the content of the MDFS. This in turn was to lead to a payment of €20 million to ENUSA by Berkeley, within 30 days of the formation of Newco.

On Monday 23rd May, 2011, ENUSA informed Berkeley of its concerns regarding a number of aspects of the MDFS. The Company responded, supporting the MDFS and requesting formation of Newco by the agreed deadline. However, Newco was not incorporated in time and after receiving further information from ENUSA, Berkeley has taken advice on its legal alternatives under the Co-operation Agreement, from the Madrid office of a leading international legal firm. ENUSA and Berkeley have conducted a number of subsequent meetings with the principal objective of reconciling differing views about the purpose and content of the restricted MDFS and the impact of these differences on the timing of forming Newco. Discussions between the parties are ongoing. Both companies have declared a commitment to this process and believe that there are several constructive options to address the differences. However, Berkeley also recognises the possibility that satisfactory agreement between the parties may not be achieved, and therefore continues to assess its alternatives.

Geology and Exploration Review

During the calendar year to June 2011, operations were planned to achieve the following targets:

1- Convert most of the Inferred Resources included in the State Reserves into Measured and Indicated (M+I).

2- Obtain metallurgical samples from Sageras, Alameda South and Retortillo deposits. 3- Increase the “near to mine” resources (State Reserves and Retortillo)

State Reserves

During the first part of the year, Berkeley was focused on upgrading and improving the Mineral Resource Estimates within the Salamanca State Reserves. In the first quarter 7,207m were drilled, resulting in a 10% increase in Sageras and Alameda South resources, with 93% of these resources falling within the Indicated and Measured Categories. The current Mineral Resource Estimate for all deposits is tabulated below.

* Berkeley has agreed to acquire 90% of the ENUSA State Reserves and deposits therein by, inter alia, completing a feasibility study and paying €20m. For full details of the Agreement, the Berkeley’s announcement dated 10th December 2008.

As a result from this campaign, and apart from the mentioned resources, new mineralized areas were uncovered in North West area of Sageras, with the mineralization still open to that side.

Additional drilling later in the year was focused on upgrading the remaining Inferred Resources at Alameda South, Palacios and Sageras and identifying additional potential.

Metallurgical Diamond Drilling

A further objective of the Company was to provide sufficient material for the ongoing tank leach and column leach metallurgical testwork programs. This required a diamond drill campaign of 5,000m involving up to 6 diamond drill rigs. A total of 5,000 kg of representative ore grade material was acquired for each of the Alameda, Sageras and Retortillo deposits.

Near Mine Exploration Drilling

After completing the metallurgical diamond drilling, RC rigs were focused on drilling exploration targets at the margins of the Sageras and Alameda South Deposits. At both deposits additional new mineralisation has been identified, in previously undrilled areas and in areas with very sparse drilling. At Sageras, follow up drilling has extended the mineralization over 250 metres to the north-west where it is still open. At Alameda, which is the largest unexploited resource, a short RC program of 12 holes for 714m was completed during March to test for possible extensions in a structural corridor on the eastern side of the deposit. A narrow zone of high grade mineralisation has been discovered with a strike length of >200m and intersections of up to 8m @ 1,819ppm U3O8 in hole ASR-094.

Mimbre

A very wide spaced drill campaign was planned at the Mimbre Prospect (200m x 400m grid). This project lies 1km south of the Alameda South Deposit in a concealed and highly prospective corridor. A total of 34 wide spaced (1km x 1km) holes were drilled in the 1990’s by ENUSA at Espeja approximately 10km south of the Alameda South deposit in the same corridor. Significantly, 40% of these holes intersected uranium mineralization with grades up to 1,700 ppm U3O8, and some intersections in excess of 10m. Berkeley has completed 14 holes for 876m within that portion of the prospect covered by the Alameda State Reserve and a further 16 holes are planned in the contiguous 100% Berkeley licence to the south. Encouraging results from hole ASR-082 were previously reported (4m@ 472ppm U3O8 from 17m).

Retortillo

During the year a 10,000m RC drill program was designed and permitted by the authorities for the Retortillo & Santidad deposits. The objectives of the program are to increase the size of the current resource and upgrade the inferred resources. Drilling commenced in early July, 2011, and is expected to be finishing by November.

Regional

Permission to drill on a number of projects within the Salamanca State Reserves and other Berkeley Licences has been granted by the authorities giving the company significant drill capacity for the coming year. Several projects have been upgraded by field work and provide high quality, drill ready targets. These include strong radiometric anomalies with outcropping mineralisation at Carpio and Villar East, and other targets beneath Tertiary cover at Nil, Cuellar and Los Prados,close to the Aguila site.

Corporate Developments

During the period under review the Company made a number of appointments to strengthen its Management team, as the Company advanced toward its transformation from an exploration based company to a project development and production based organisation. The decision was made by the Board of Directors to reinstate Mathew Syme as a Non-Executive Director considering the significant increase in corporate activity early in the financial year. On the 11th October 2010, CFO Henry Horne was appointed an Executive Director of the company. On the 30th December 2010 the Managing Director, Ian Stalker, resigned due to personal reasons. Henry Horne was appointed as Acting Managing Director until a permanent appointment was made.

SIGNIFICANT POST BALANCE DATE EVENTS

Since the end of the financial year, the following events have significantly affected, or may significantly affect, the operations of the Consolidated Entity, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Consolidated Entity in future financial years:

Following shareholder approval on 20 September 2011, the Company has issued 2,000,000 Incentive Options to Mr Brendan James each with an exercise price of 41 cents, with an expiry date of 1 May 2016. All the Options will vest on 30 May 2014, or on the date a Change of Control event occurs.

In addition to the above, a further 1,000,000 options have been issued to employees under the Berkeley Employee Option Scheme each with an expiry date of 21 September 2015, vesting in three equal tranches on 21 September 2012, 21 September 2013 and 21 September 2014 at an exercise price of 41 cents.

On 25 August 2011 Laurence Marsland was appointed Non Executive Director of the company.

Other than the above there are no matters or circumstances, which have arisen since 30 June 2011 that have significantly affected or may significantly affect:

• the operations, in financial years subsequent to 30 June 2011, of the Consolidated Entity;

• the results of those operations, in financial years subsequent to 30 June 2011, of the Consolidated Entity; or

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION AND PERFORMANCE

The Consolidated Entity's operations are subject to various environmental laws and regulations under the relevant government's legislation. Full compliance with these laws and regulations is regarded as a minimum standard for all operations to achieve.

Instances of environmental non-compliance by an operation are identified either by external compliance audits or inspections by relevant government authorities.

There have been no significant known breaches by the Consolidated Entity during the financial year.

LIKELY DEVELOPMENTS AND EXPECTED RESULTS It is the Board's current intention that the Consolidated Entity will continue with development of its Spanish uranium projects. The Company will also continue to examine new opportunities in mineral exploration, including uranium.

All of these activities are inherently risky and the Board is unable to provide certainty that any or all of these activities will be able to be achieved. In the opinion of the Directors, any further disclosure of information regarding likely developments in the operations of the Consolidated Entity and the expected results of these operations in subsequent financial years may prejudice the interests of the Company and accordingly no further information has been disclosed.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Berkeley Resources Limited – Concise Financial Report 2011 14

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) (30 JUNE 2011 YEAR END) (Continued) Remuneration Policy The remuneration policy for the Group's Key Management Personnel (including the Managing Director) has been developed by the Board taking into account:

• the size of the Group; • the size of the management team for the Group; • the nature and stage of development of the Group's current operations; and • market conditions and comparable salary levels for companies of a similar size and operating in similar

sectors. In addition to considering the above general factors, the Board has also placed emphasis on the following specific issues in determining the remuneration policy for key management personnel:

• the Group is currently focused on undertaking exploration activities with a view to expanding and developing its resources. In line with the Group's accounting policy, all exploration expenditure prior to a feasibility study is expensed. The Group continues to examine new business opportunities in the energy and resources sector;

• risks associated with resource companies whilst exploring and developing projects; and • other than profit which may be generated from asset sales (if any), the Group does not expect to be

undertaking profitable operations until sometime after the successful commercialisation, production and sales of commodities from one or more of its current projects, or the acquisition of a profitable mining operation.

Remuneration Policy for Executives The Group's remuneration policy is to provide a fixed remuneration component and a performance based component (options and a cash bonus, see below). The Board believes that this remuneration policy is appropriate given the considerations discussed in the section above and is appropriate in aligning Key Management Personnel objectives with shareholder and business objectives. Performance Based Remuneration – Incentive Options The Board has chosen to issue incentive options to Key Management Personnel as a key component of the incentive portion of their remuneration, in order to attract and retain the services of the Key Management Personnel and to provide an incentive linked to the performance of the Company. The Board considers that each Key Management Personnel's experience in the resources industry will greatly assist the Company in progressing its projects to the next stage of development and the identification of new projects. As such, the Board believes that the number of incentive options granted to Key Management Personnel is commensurate to their value to the Company. The Board has a policy of granting options to Key Management Personnel with exercise prices at and/or above market share price (at time of agreement). As such, incentive options granted to Key Management Personnel will generally only be of benefit if the Key Management Personnel perform to the level whereby the value of the Company increases sufficiently to warrant exercising the incentive options granted. Other than service-based vesting conditions, there are no additional performance criteria on the incentive options granted to Key Management Personnel, as given the speculative nature of the Group's activities and the small management team responsible for its running, it is considered the performance of the Key Management Personnel and the performance and value of the Company are closely related. Performance Based Remuneration – Cash Bonus In addition, some Key Management Personnel are entitled to an annual cash bonus upon achieving various key performance indicators, to be determined by the Board. On an annual basis, after consideration of performance against key performance indicators, the Board determines the amount, if any, of the annual cash bonus to be paid to each Key Management Personnel. Impact of Shareholder Wealth on Key Management Personnel Remuneration The Board does not directly base remuneration levels on the Company's share price or movement in the share price over the financial year. However, as noted above, a number of Key Management Personnel have received

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Berkeley Resources Limited – Concise Financial Report 2011 15

options which generally will only be of value should the value of the Company's shares increase sufficiently to warrant exercising the incentive options granted. REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED) (30 JUNE 2011 YEAR END) (Continued) As a result of the Group's exploration and new business activities, the Board anticipates that it will retain future earnings (if any) and other cash resources for the operation and development of its business. Accordingly the Company does not currently have a policy with respect to the payment of dividends, and as a result the remuneration policy does not take into account the level of dividends or other distributions to shareholders (eg return of capital). Impact of Earnings on Key Management Personnel Remuneration As discussed above, the Group is currently undertaking exploration activities, and does not expect to be undertaking profitable operations until sometime after the successful commercialisation, production and sales of commodities from one or more of its current projects. Accordingly the Board does not consider current or prior year earnings when assessing remuneration of Key Management Personnel. Remuneration Policy for Non-Executive Directors The Board policy is to remunerate Non-Executive Directors at market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment and responsibilities. Given the current size, nature and risks of the Company, incentive options have been used to attract and retain Non-Executive Directors. The Board determines payments to the Non-Executive Directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to Non-Executive Directors is subject to approval by shareholders at a General Meeting. Fees for Non-Executive Directors are not linked to the performance of the economic entity. However, to align Directors' interests with shareholder interests, the Directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company and Non-Executive Directors have received incentive options in order to secure their services and as a key component of their remuneration. General Where required, Key Management Personnel receive superannuation contributions (or foreign equivalent), currently equal to 9% of their salary, and do not receive any other retirement benefit. From time to time, some individuals have chosen to sacrifice part of their salary to increase payments towards superannuation. All remuneration paid to Key Management Personnel is valued at cost to the company and expensed. Incentive options are valued using the Binomial option valuation methodology. The value of these incentive options is expensed over the vesting period.
